Science Testing Support

Also known as PBSci Testing

Need to help a student get support? Have them follow the instructions on the student testing support page.

Faculty may choose to arrange testing accommodations themselves or may elect to have Science Testing Support make accommodations on their behalf. If you would like us to make accommodations for your undergraduate course, please fill out our Google Form.

Important: Please keep in mind that Google form responses should be submitted at least 10 working days prior to the first exam, to ensure an adequate amount of time to make arrangements. We strongly recommend that you submit the Google form in the beginning of the quarter.

Service requirements

We will need the following information to provide accommodations:

1. Your exam schedule: Testing accommodations must be provided for any ‘timed and graded course activity’ which can include midterms, quizzes, labs, final, etc. Please send us your complete exam schedule.
2. Instructor and/or TA contact information: Students at the remote testing site must have the same access to an instructor or TA as those taking the on-site exam, please provide contact information for you or your TA during the exam.

We use Google Calendar to schedule exam accomodations for students. Students will receive a Google email confirming their accomodations including the time and place of their exam. You will also receive a confirmation email with the date, time, room number, and the list of students who have been invited to the exam.

Exam pickup & dropoff

Please coordinate exam pickup and dropoff with us. Our office is located in JBEB Room 147. If you use Printing Services, please dropoff copies of your exam when you pickup your print order, or leave copies of the exam at Printing Services for us to pickup.

Note: Due to budgetary restrictions we can no longer print out exams.

If you have questions about testing accommodations, please contact testing.pbsci@ucsc.edu.
